Abstract

A smearing compensation apparatus for a radar system having a scanning antenna is provided. The apparatus includes a first memory for storing a plurality of data streams, with each data stream corresponds to a radar signal received at a different angular position of the antenna, and a second memory stores radiation pattern data of the antenna. A frequency domain transform processor performs a frequency domain transform on the radiation pattern data stored in the second memory to produce a frequency characteristic of the radiation pattern data. A compensation function processor applies a compensation function to the frequency characteristic of the radiation pattern data to produce a compensated frequency characteristic. An inverse frequency domain transform processor performs an inverse frequency domain transform on the compensated frequency characteristic to produce digital filter coefficients. A digital filter processes the plurality of data streams stored in the first memory using the digital filter coefficients.
